Nature, the Natural world is full of unexpected wonders and ideas. Artists looking at other artists work. Movies, beach walking, and people watching are the most effective ways to generate ideas for your own creations and learn something new.  I am inspired by people who feel me and are enthusiastic about their jobs, life or their family and who convey their enthusiasm and good energy towards me.

 

     Being with people who are passionate about what they do makes me feel good, and they are an example for me. When you paint and you draw, there are no limits. You could break the “law” but you’re free to do what you want. My paintings are the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Yeah man, the good could be bad, the bad could be good, and ugly is often beautiful.

 

     Creating artwork with innovative thinking and a little of that right side of the brain, that’s the Natural world. Nature can be your dreams or others dreams, manifested in the legacy of ART. Shaka!
